Is there a neat way to find an ordinal value from a table,
for example the median or 95th percentile value in a column,
without walking through the table in ascending or descending
order?

I entered these words on Google: median, percentile and SQL. The first
link was http://www.sqlteam.com/item.asp?ItemID=16480. There seems to
be some good tricks there.
You may also want to look at the other links (I didn't). I can bet that
this is something that SQL Server MVP Itzik Ben-Gan has written some
good stuff about.

Has anyone created a user function to return the ordinal position based
on numeric input?
In other words, f(1) returns 'st', f(2) returns 'nd', f(3) returns
'rd', etc.

Hi
I have a ListBox called lstListOfStuff
I want to get the ordinal position of a ListItem so that I can insert a new
ListItem below it. How do I do this? I cannot find any members to give me
the index position of an item?

I want to populate an array with values from an ado recordset
(multiple rows)
I use the absolute position of the cursor in the recordset to define
the row of my array to be populated. I have a workaround for lack of
a way to define the ordinal position of a field (incrementing a
counter variable), but it feels so primitive:
dim Fld as Field
dim rst1 as new adodb.recordset

However, I did not find so far how to fix that.
Investigations are still under progress and I hope you'll be able to

Hi folks,
I was wondering if there is any way of formatting a date to include the
ordinal characters? I've looked at the documentation for
DateTime.ToString(), but no where can I find information on ordinals.
For example, I currently use:
Console.WriteLine(myDate.ToString("d MMMM, yyyy"));

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
